Netherwood Academy (formerly Netherwood Advanced Learning Centre) is a secondary school located next to Netherwood Country Park, between Wombwell and Darfield in the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England.
The school was formed in 2012 from a merger of Wombwell High School and Darfield Foulstone School of Creative Arts.[1] The new school is located on a new campus, which also has facilities for leisure and cultural activities and adult learning to be used by the local community. The school has a £35 million campus, built as part of Barnsley’s Building Schools for the Future programme.
On 1 May 2017, the school converted to academy status and is sponsored by the Astrea Academy Trust.
